Sliced tomato, crumbled bacon, and savory cheddar cheese sauce smother shredded turkey in this open-faced sandwich. You can also use leftover chicken in place of the turkey. Broiling the sandwiches browns and melts the Parmesan cheese that tops them Ingredients:
1 1/2 tablespoons butter |
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/8 teaspoon paprika |
1/8 teaspoon black pepper |
1 cup 2% low-fat milk |
1/2 cup shredded reduced-fat sharp cheddar cheese |
1/2 teaspoon worcestershire sauce |
1/8 teaspoon dry mustard |
12 slices white bread, toasted |
3 cups shredded cooked turkey (about 6 ounces) |
12 slices tomatoes (1/4 inch thick) |
5 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled |
1/4 cup grated fresh parmesan cheese |
Directions:
1. To prepare sauce, melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat; stir in flour, salt, paprika, and pepper. Cook the mixture 30 seconds, stirring constantly. Gradually add milk, stirring with a whisk. Cook 3 minutes or until thick, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Add cheddar, Worcestershire, and mustard; stir with a whisk until smooth. Keep warm.
2. Arrange toast on a large baking sheet. Arrange turkey evenly over toast. Drizzle sauce evenly over turkey; top each toast slice with 1 tomato slice. Sprinkle evenly with bacon and Parmesan. Broil for 7 minutes or until thoroughly heated and lightly browned. Serve immediately.
